Abstract (en)

[origin: DE10130704A1] Position signaler comprises two sensors for measuring the position of a unit, whereby both sensors have given characteristic curves (16,18) with the first sensor having a characteristic curve that is essentially linear over the whole positioning range and the second sensor has a curve that has a step behavior in a first part of the positioning range and then is essentially linear. Method for monitoring a position signaler whereby two sensors with different characteristic curves are used and for fault detection a plausibility test of the signal is carried out.
